So cheap and utterly wonderful

I love Little Aladdins as if you want to eat or grab takeaway, it's quick, cheap and the food is perfect. Extremely good value for money. You can eat in or takeaway. Loads of awesome curries and samosas on offer amongst other things.

Pros: Quick, Cheap, Reliably tasty

Cons: Not very glamorous so only for casual eating :)

Fast, cheap take away food!

So cheap and fast. I think about the tofu wrap atleast once a day.
It's nice to have a quick all vegan take away in Manchester that's the same price (if not cheaper) than the non vegan counter parts!

100% vegan, 100% delicious.

A takeaway with tables and chairs if you prefer to eat in. Fabulous Indian and Bangladeshi food, all vegan, very inexpensive. Example, rice and three curries for £5 (April '18). My favourites? Cauliflower & Potato, Spinach, Dhal. Cheers, Dave W.

Pros: Excellent value for money, fresh, tasty completely

Cons: I can't get there often enough!

Brilliant find, great food.

There was a lot of choice on the menu, and it was great that it wasn't centred on fake meat. The veggie burger was really nice, and the Oreo brownie was lovely. The service was good too.

Pros: Lots of choice, Lovely, non-pretentious food , Good service

Cons: No toilet, No high chairs

Amazing

Visited 25/02/18 with my non vegan boyfriend who loved it!! The mixed veg curry was amazing, the same if not better quality to what would be found anywhere else! My boyfriend loved the falafel wrap and we both had vegan cheese on chips and oreo brownies!! Everything was amazing, service fast and the staff friendly. Perfect vegan place to eat, will be coming back!

Pros: curry, staff, options

Average curry

Met some friends in here for a meal, menu looked good, lot's of choice but when i went to service counter was basically told i was having the 3 curries and rice option, it looked alright but wasn't that great, average curry nothing outstanding. Aubergine fritters were nice, didn't try dessert as was too full.

Pros: all vegan, goodchoice

Cons: easy option pushed onto you

Cracking biryani

All four of us all had the special biryani, at £6.50 each. Two of us had two huge onion bhajis each, too! All scoffed with mango chutney as well as spicy sauce. Cheap and cheerful, for the Northern Quarter. Will definitely visit again.

Pros: Loads of vegan options.

Cons: Not a lot of setting area but it is mainly a take

Three curries for a fiver; Chana, aubergine and kidney beans. Also, there's a pecan brownie in the background. at Little Aladdin in Manchester

Since turning vegan I find it so hard to get a korma and naan bread but this place is completely vegan and it tastes AMAZING! They always have freshly made brownies too which I highly recommend.

Quick & good for vegans on a budget

I had given myself a couple of hours in Manchester to rest and eat in the middle of a 10 hour bus journey back to Glasgow. My first place didn't work out due to them stopping the menu early so opted for here - it's really close to Shudehill bus station so worked out well.

I got a naan with a mix of tofu and falafel, as I couldn't decide between the two and it was advertised as an option. In it I got salad, hummus, and - from the range of sauces available - garlic mayo. They also had a range of curries you could order, too. I got chips on the side, which were average skinny fries, but I got more garlic mayo on the side which was delicious.

I did come out smelling a bit like oil so if you're stopping in before a night out I'd advise getting a take away! The person who served me was pleasant and the food was ready really quickly. They have a few tables you can sit at, or high stools by the window. No toilets so you'll need to nip elsewhere, e.g. the Arndale Centre.

I'd definitely go back and have some curry and a paratha or a roti. They have quite a few tasty looking bread options. They also have a jug of water and glasses available for you to help yourself which I appreciated (although I got a juice as I needed some sugar!). They also have brownies and rocky road available to buy if you want a cake.

Great tofu wrap

It's wonderful that this place went fully vegan. I love the tofu wrap, it's simply delicious. I had less luck with the curry and rice, it was simply terrible, as was the naan. However I had a naan wrap before and it was fabulous so I hope I just caught them on a bad day. Support this place.

It's not a fancy date-night place, but if you want some cheap and cheerful (and tasty) Indian food then this is your place. The chick pea biryani (£6.50) was great.

Pros: Tasty food, Central location, Cheap & cheerful

good food, lovely service

very welcoming sir behind the counter.
food was very well spiced (had the deal with 3 curries for a fiver). also ordered a naan, which was nice but i had better. i liked that it’s freshly prepared though, you have to wait a little.
food was a lot and very filling! amazing deal for little money.

Pros: service, price, spices

Great place for a takeaway or a quick sit in meal - lots of vegan curries, naan, chips and burgers. All cheap - tasty, not super high quality but good for the price - proper 'takeaway' style food! Portions are massive too!!
